Quaderns d'àudio - Audio Notebooks

Quaderns d'àudio (Audio Notebooks) http://rwm.macba.cat/en/quaderns-audio is a collection of publications of texts relating to Ràdio Web MACBA programming. The objective of these publications is to complement the lines of work developed by the radio through the critical edition of hard-to-find works that are important for understanding and delving into sound art in the fields of both music and contemporary art. The texts are available for free and are presented in downloadable, printable PDF format. We've published 5 essays so far:
